Song Lyric's in Scrap Pages!!

I just love doing scrap pages using song lyric's as a base for them! I really don't know why I don't do it more often! You kind of have the song playing in your head as you're scrapping and it makes it all the more fun to create! ....I took this photo of Chloe, my 14 year old daughter with a few of her good friends. I love how much fun they have together, it doesn't matter where they are or what the weather is like, they always have a good time together (yep, that's mud on Chloe's knee's from rough-housing with the boys! lol!) When I look at this photo it makes me think of the song lyrics from the song 'Good Time' by Owl City & Carly Rae Jepsen ....

"We don't even have to try...

It's always a good time"

Here's a link to the song on Youtube if you're not familiar with it.... "GOOD TIME"

Of course I just had to use theNEW Best Friends collection from Websters Pages to make up this page! This time I went with the blue's and turquoise colours in the collection since I was scrapping boys in the photo as well.....but, heehee, it didn't stop me from adding blooms to the page :)

For this corner design I combined the lovely scroll chipboard from Dusty Attic with a cameo (Perfect Accents) piece from Websters Pages Best Friend collection. (the corner stamp is an older stamp from Websters Pages & Unity Stamps.

This is something that I've used before on my pages, is a zipper that I cut out from an old pair of jeans (after going through two girls, the jeans were pretty much done anyway:) ....I used some of the beautiful lace trims that coordinate with the Best Friends collection around the zipper design.

I made the blooms decorating this corner from the patterned paper from this collection using the Spellbinders 'Rose Creations' die cuts and some flower stamens that I found at my local fabric store.

Here's a close-up look at the pretty new blooms from Websters Pages called Princess Petals....I'm loving that wide turquoise lace trim that goes with the BF collection as well!

I though I would use up some of the left over scraps from the last two pages I made with the Best Friends Collection so I made up this tag...

I did a little inking and stamping to make up this page....yep, I can't get enough of stamping lately! :)

.....so tell me.....what song do you want to scrap in the near future? I love to hear what songs move and inspire people!

Thank you so much for visiting my blog ! I can hardly believe it!!! I was so thrilled when i read your name!

Of course I have some of my ugliest work ever on my blog right now as I can't bend to get at things since my back surgery Oct 1. I am hanging my head in shame.

MY goal in 2013 is to try all the new and ingenious ideas I see on your blog and on pinterest and create a style of my own.I do scrapbook but can't share my pages on my blog as my family are intensely private.I do scrapbook shabby chic but certainly not as well as you. A very amateur version of shabby chic!

This is a lovely layout...I think your daughter looks a lot like you. so much fun to see you signature elements...Looks great and thanks again for the kind words.

Hi Gabrielle, this lo is Ttruly amazing! I really like your flowers in the corner with the big flowercenters they look so cool on this lo....I just love the Best Friends collection I was the lucky winner on facebook of that collection can't wait till it arrives...Also really like the picture and that you've scrapped a song..always love doing that too.The zipper is very cool to with that gorgeous ribbon everytime you seem to amaze me even more...thanks for a bunch of inspiration!!! Hope you have a wonderful week hugs Amy :)

When I saw this lay-out on the Webster's Pages blog, it took me some time before I managed to get away from the computer;) I just couldn't stop looking at your gorgeous page! Your use of colours, the soft and fabulous details and the newspaper/bookpage details are all so beautiful! Totally love your tag too!

another gorgeous layout with beautiful colors and amazing techniques. I love the zipper idea, tearing apart the lace and the cameo on top of the element. Attractive new Webster's designs, a real musthave!

This is such a gorgeous page.Love the zipper and use of the letter printed paper. There are so many cool and amazing little blings and embellishments your eyes can just move around and spot a new one.:)

About Me

Hi everyone!
I'm a stay at home mom of two wonderful girls and am married to the love of my life Steve. I started scrapbooking in 2006 when my sister introduced me to it and haven't looked back since! I would say my style is ever changing but if I were to name a style I'd say its 'shabby-chic/vintage'. I've been published in Creating Keepsakes Magazine, Memory Makers Magazine and Scrapbooking & Beyond Magazine, Scrap365 Magazine, Canadian Scrapbooker and Australian Scrapbook Ideas Magazine along with a number of online Magazines. I have been on a number of Designs teams in the past including Daisy D's, Zva Creative, The Color Room and am presently on the Design Team for Bo Bunny, Webster's Pages and Dusty Attic, Maja Design and Scrap365 Magazine. This is my place to share what I'm working on and some new techniques and products I love.
